VZ SS Ute
Have had an issue with a ticking/clicking noise coming from outside of my 2005 VZ SS ute for some time now but haven't been able to find out what it is, have taken it to a mechanic and he has no idea, so thought I'd ask on here, worth a crack.

It's a loud ticking/clicking sounds coming from the outside on the front driver's side, only clicks with the car is in motion, slow down, the click slows down, speed up, the click speeds up, gets annoying with the windows down and just makes me paranoid something is wrong.

Any ideas? Has anyone else had this happen at all?

Cheers.

Too many
Noisy lifter? Does the noise go away/quieten as the revs rise?

Well it's not a stone in tyre, am taking the ute to a different mechanic to get all the work done and will tell him about this also, see what he thinks.

What Sabbath said.

Had the same problem a year ago & found that a tyre picked up the stone between the tread. I just pryed it out.

Have you recently had the wheels balanced? Could be a wheel weight touching the caliper if it's close.
